I remember the D104's from my early years in Ham radio.

I never had a mic for my DX35 in the late 1950's and acquired a carbon 
mic with the old AN-ARC-1 VHF AM radio I bought for 2m AM as a Tech.

I upgraded to a Johnson 6N2 after college so bought a new Electro-voice 
mic that had cardiode pattern for noise reduction.  It was shaped like a 
long silver tube and I got a desk stand for it.  It was a broadcast mic 
so made fine quality AM on 2m with my plate modulated 5894 at 150w.

All that gear is gone, now.

Most of my station is now Elecraft.
